My friend and I have tried this personal story line three times. It gets to the point where the tank breaks down. We clear the mines, and then we get attacked endlessly by the risen until we are overwhelmed. The tank never gets repaired, the story doesn’t continue.

Has anyone else run into this issue?

For example, ‘black beans’ are only available via karma, and are account bound, yet there are players tying up their money trying to purchase these on the trading post.

In general, a really bad idea…preventing inflation will be the problem.

Dead of Winter Sylvari Durmand Priory quest

Well, I managed to finish it w/my elementalist (lvl 32 now). I upgraded all armor and weapons w/malachite for toughness.

I used the glyph of elementals for my elite (I don’t think I had an elite the first time I tried this). I think that helped a lot with the veteran risen. Not sure if it helped much with the lich.

The strafing movement is a distinct help to avoid the lich’s ranged attacks. I only used the #2 attack (ranged) w/the sword and had it on auto.
I did use the seed turret, and I think it did help aggro some of the adds.

The NPCs seemed better behaved this time. A couple stayed in the doorway and used their ranged attacks, so they never died.

I think I died about four times. Those stupid fire traps get me every time. Repairs were less than a silver.

I agree I do not strafe as much as I should. I had the spell on auto cast, but that spell is so slow and does so little damage, it didn’t do much. Attempting to rez is indeed instant death.

And I have no idea how you get him to take aggro. The instant I got within range, he’s after me, abandoning any other fight he’s in. Whereas Iowerth was good, he certainly didn’t hold the boss’s attention. I’ve actually found this to be true in other personal story lines, other characters. The boss will go after me specifically.

Is crafting xp broken?

I was able to re-create this. I did not get xp as a leatherworker, and I did as a huntsman. I submitted an in-game bug report.

When you have a chance, check it again on a different day with the same character and watch carefully to see if the xp is credited to the character. I will do the same when I get more crafting materials. We need to determine if this is repeatable or an intermittent problem.

My character was 25 points away from a level up, and crafting an item said 93xp, but no xp was credited. Did this a couple of times. I know I’ve leveled up from crafting before. Did something change?

Rather amusing bug. Guess I’ve got my shoes on backwards.

Ouch. I have an elementalist, and was able to kill the veteran risen using the trap’s help (I’m just an average sort of player). Your trap skills and stun skills (if any) would help. I’m not even interested in trying this again unless my character has a way to defeat the main boss.

I was also rather annoyed when all the NPCs set off the initial fire traps at the entrance, which killed my character. After I finally learned to avoid the trigger stones. Sort of pointless having them along sometimes.

It would be nice if the “travel” message does not display when the character is in combat.

Also, the “you-are-on-an-overflow-server-ok” message should be changed to be a large on-screen display that does not require user interaction.

quest "Rumors of Trouble" works as intrended?

I retried this quest after going up a couple more levels (first tried at level 14) and was finally able to finish it. I stayed well back away from the monsters and used a ranged weapon only, no AoE. The ice imps seems to be difficult monsters and 8 level 12 ice imps for a level 11 quest seem a bit much.

I’m also stuck on this one.

I found help on the internet for the first veteran boss. Draw him back into the trapped hallway and let the traps kill him. Thereafter the traps in the hallway disappear.

The greatsword seems to be seriously underpowered, and I was not able to do any significant damage to the main boss. I have no ideas on how to get past this one.
